COLLECTORS ON THE MOVE—A STARK CONTRAST FROM BRS ERA

From teaching classes to sitting on the floor with students, composing school songs, screening movies, and even sharing meals—collectors are making their presence felt in the field like never before. Their visits are not just frequent but also proudly documented on social media and sent out to the press. While the public sees this as a refreshing change, the real celebrations are happening among officers who aren’t collectors. A bureaucrat vividly recalls the unspoken rule during the BRS era—stepping out of the office was a risk and those who dared faced consequences. Now, the very thing that was once frowned upon is being encouraged. It’s not about just inspections anymore; it’s about the sheer joy of finally having the freedom to move without fear. –
